Before & After Photos

The crawl spaces of this Mount Vernon home had enough humidity in each of them that water dripped from the mold and mildewed insulation and joists. Several contractors had tried to help over the years to make this area beneath the home better. 

To help these homeowners, our team removed the old insulation and vapor barrier. We also had to remove some dead wildlife, and clean the HVAC equipment fully to rid it of mold. We encapsulated the duct work and the crawl space, installing TerraBlock insulation and a thick 20 mil. CleanSpace vapor barrier. The results were a clean, healthy, and safe crawl space for these homeowners.

This Stafford, VA home was suffering from an unpleasant odor permeating throughout the house and rooms above the crawlspace being too hot in the summer and too cold in the winter. This was having a serious negative impact on the comfort level of the home. Our service professional Brent went out to the property to take a look and find the best possible solution to the homeowner’s issues. After completing the inspection Brent explained to the homeowners that the primary cause of their discomfort was a lack of waterproofing in the crawlspace that was allowing mold growth and water damage to occur. He determined that the best course of action to end their discomfort would be to install the CleanSpace insulation and waterproofing system to prevent any chance of further mold growth or water damage and keep the home more comfortable. After the homeowners agreed to Brent's solution our service crews went out to get to work on the home. The crews started by removing the old ineffective insulation. Then they installed special TerraBlock floor insulation that is protected from water damage and does not support the growth of mold, mildew, or rot. After that, they installed SilverGlo rigid foam insulation on the walls to keep the crawlspace and the rooms above comfortable year-round. Finally, the crew installed the CleanSpace covering on the floor to create a vapor-tight barrier that maximizes leak protection and minimizes the opportunity for mold growth and water damage.

This Alexandria, VA home had water damage in the basement.  Our sales professional Pedro went out to the property to perform a no cost home inspection and find the best possible solution. After the inspection Pedro able to show the homeowners that there were large gaps between where the basement walls met the floor, trapping water that seeped into the house. He determined that the best solution would be to install WaterGuard trench system to collect and divert the water out of the home via a sump pump. Once the project was approved, our service crew went out to the home. The crew started by removing all of the obstructions around the perimeter of the basement. After that, they dug out the trench to house the WaterGuard. Finally, the crew installed the WaterGuard and resealed the trench to complete the installation and protect the home from any future water damage.

This Winchester, VA homeowner was concerned about flooding in their basement and the water damage that came with it. They contacted 3 Pros Basement Systems for a free home inspection and to get an idea of what options were available to help. Our sales professional Stephen went out to provide a full home inspection and give the homeowner some options. After the inspection Stephen determined that the ideal solution would be to install a sump pump in the basement.  Our production crew started by digging out the planned trench lines and the sump pit in specifically chosen locations that would help increase the system's efficiency. Then, they installed the sump pump at the lowest spot in the basement and the drains at key points of interest chosen to maximize the system's effectiveness. After that, they installed the discharge line that led to a slope pointing away from the property so the water would flow away from the home. 

This home in Purcellville VA had issues with floors that were too cold in the Fall and Winter months of the year.  The homeowners called us to see if we could help design a project to fix it.  Our Home Performance Sales Pro Pedro inspected the crawl space and discovered that the existing insulation was not performing properly due to uncontrolled air in the crawl space and a lack of all around insulation.  Our team removed the old insulation in the space and then sealed up the rim joists with Spray Foam.  Clean Space was installed throughout the crawl space on the walls, floors and foundation supports to act as a moisture barrier and insulation from the cold dirt floors.  Having eliminated the flow of external air which brought in outside temperatures, dust and allergens, this space was now more controlled and the air quality in the home would improve.
